Definitions
- the present invention relates to ozone generators adapted for ozone generation by subjecting oxygen to a high-frequency alternating current (AC) of high-voltage over a dielectric medium. More precisely, the invention relates to an ozone generator system wherein a multitude of plate type ozone generators are arranged in a block, and wherein one or several blocks may be comprised in a modular ozone generator system.
- AC high-frequency alternating current
- Ozone has highly oxidising properties and is used, preferably in diluted form, for sterilisation of water.
- sewage water can be treated with the aim of decomposing or eliminating environmentally or health hazardous substances therefrom, as well as removing unpleasant odours from the water, and drinking water can be pre-treated with the intention of improving the quality of the water.
- Other areas of use are e.g. as a bleaching agent in the paper industry, for air cleaning and for performing certain oxidation reactions within organic chemistry.
- Ozone is produced by letting oxygen, or a gas rich in oxygen, pass through an electrical discharge.
- Oxygen or an oxygen-rich gas is thereby allowed to flow through a chamber in an ozone generator, said chamber being defined either by two co-axial tubes, or a series of plates, between which tubes or plates an electrical discharge is taking place.
- the terms space and chamber are used as denomination for the same thing, i.e. the location inside the ozone generator where existing oxygen or oxygen-rich gas is converted into ozone.
- the first mentioned type of ozone generator is, for industrial purposes, very large and bulky, and difficult and costly to manufacture and maintain.
- the second type of ozone generator, here called the plate type is less demanding in terms of economy and space.
- One problem associated with ozone generators is connected with the chamber, in which oxygen in the form of oxygen gas or a gas rich in oxygen is converted into ozone, having at least one delimiting surface made of a dielectric material, a so-called dielectric.
- This dielectric is used for the purpose of generating a corona during the discharge between a high-voltage electrode and ground, and normally consists of a ceramic or glass material.
- Pressure variations in the gas fed into the chamber for example caused by pressure chocks in the system when the gas supply is switched on or off, will generate high strains in the ceramic material, entailing a risk of cracking it. This problem naturally also tends to increase if, with the aim of increasing the capacity, an increased pressure of the introduced oxygen 5 gas is used.
- a general object of the present invention is to provide an ozone generator that eliminates the problems of the known art. 5
- An aspect of this object, using an arrangement of an ozone generator system in which generators are arranged in blocks, is to increase the productivity and improve the efficiency compared to known ozone generator systems, and, beyond that, prevent parts of the device from being damaged or to degenerate due to vibrations and shocks encountered during operation, caused by pressure shocks and 30 excessive pressure in the introduced gas, the electrical discharges in the generator chambers, or uneven gas or coolant flows.
- Another aspect of this object is to provide a design of a block type ozone generator system adapted for easy maintenance, and arranged so as to.be minimally sensitive to the reactive effect of the ozone. 35 A further aspect of this object is to provide an ozone generator system designed in such a way that existing moisture in the introduced gas is expelled from the system during operation.
- Still another aspect of this object is to provide a design allowing easy checking of seals in the gas system.
- the present invention relates to an ozone generator system in which a multitude of plate type ozone generators is arranged adjacent to each other in a block.
- Each ozone generator comprises a high- voltage electrode, a ground electrode and a dielectric, and a chamber, located between said electrodes, for converting oxygen to ozone by a corona discharge between said electrodes over said dielectric.
- each chamber is provided with an inlet for oxygen or an oxygen-rich gas and an outlet for ozone.
- Said ozone generators are arranged in a block rack adapted for fixing the ozone generators into said block, said block and block rack defining a block module.
- the invention is characterised by said block rack comprising an inlet port adapted for the introduction of oxygen and an outlet port adapted for the discharging of ozone created through conversion in the generators comprised in the block module.
- a multitude of first conduits, each running between said inlet port and one chamber inlet, and a multitude of second conduits, each running between said outlet port and one chamber outlet, are provided within said block rack.
- conduits within the block rack running to and from all generator chambers in the block module, no hoses will be needed, and the number of seals required will be reduced, as conduit junctions can be arranged entirely without joints.
- the present invention relates to an ozone generator arrangement in which a multitude of plate type ozone generators are arranged adjacent to each other in a block, mechanically secured by means of block fixation means.
- said arrangement comprises a single block of generators, wherein said block fixation means is a block rack, devised to fix and secure the generators in one block.
- said arrangement comprises two or more blocks of generators, wherein the block fixation means is a module rack, devised to fix and secure modules of generator blocks into one module system.
- each generator of a block in the arrangement comprises coolant ducts provided in respective ground electrodes of the generators, and coolant conduits to and from the generators are formed and defined within said block fixation means.
- a single coolant inlet port is arranged on said block fixation means, connected to all of said coolant conduits leading to the generators, and a single coolant outlet port is arranged on said block fixation means, connected to all of said coolant conduits leading from the generators.
- an electronic unit comprising means for controlling or monitoring the ozone generation process in a generator, is mounted directly on said block fixation means.
- said electronic unit comprises heat conducting means for transferring heat from the electronic unit to the block fixation means.
- said electronic unit is mounted on said block rack.
- said electronic unit is mounted on said module rack.
- the invention relates to an ozone generator arrangement in which a multitude of plate type ozone generators are arranged adjacent to each other in a block, said ozone generators being arranged in a block module comprising a block rack adapted for fixing the ozone generators into said block, characterised in that the generators comprise gas ducts provided in respective ground electrodes for transportation of gas to and from the generators, and where gas conduits to and from the generators are defined within said block rack
- a single gas inlet port is arranged on said block rack, connected to all of said gas conduits leading to the generators, and a single gas outlet port is arranged on said block rack, connected to all of said coolant conduits leading from the generators.
- Fig. 1 illustrates a modular ozone generator system according to a preferred embodiment of the invention
- Fig. 2 schematically illustrates a block module of ozone generators according to an embodiment of the present invention, having an electronic unit attached thereto;
- Fig. 3 illustrates parts of the embodiment from Fig. 2, enlarged and in cross section.
- Fig. 1 shows an ozone generator system 1 according to the present invention, comprising a multitude of plate type ozone generators 2 arranged adjacent to each other in blocks 3. Even if only some of the generators and the blocks in the figure are provided with reference numbers, with the aim of making the figure as clear- as possible, it is clearly shown in the figure that the illustrated embodiment of the invention comprises three blocks 3, each comprising six generators 2. Likewise, it should be understood that the person skilled in the art could easily modify the proposed embodiment into containing an arbitrary number of blocks comprising an arbitrary number of generators. Thus, the illustrated preferred embodiment is solely to be regarded as an example.
- Each ozone generator 2 comprises, in a not shown but well known manner, a high-voltage electrode, a ground electrode and a dielectric and a chamber, located between said electrodes, for converting oxygen into ozone by a corona discharge between said electrodes over said dielectric. Further, each chamber is provided with at least one inlet for oxygen or an oxygen-rich gas and at least one outlet for ozone.
- plate type generator available in the market, and the specific design of the individual generator is not essential to the invention. However, it is to be understood that all generators 2 within the system 1 are of the same type and size. The illustrated generators are circular, but it should be understood that an arbitrary shape could be applied to the invention, e.g. oval, triangular, square, rectangular, pentagonal, etc.
- Said ozone generators 2 are arranged in a block rack 4 for each block 3.
- each block rack 4 comprises two crossbars, i.e. one top bar and one bottom bar. It will be understood that numerous different manners of arranging the block rack are conceivable, and that the illustrated example is not to be understood as limiting, but illustrative only. In the figure, only the lower block rack is provided with a reference denomination, in order to enhance the clarity of the figure. In a not shown manner, the block racks 4 mechanically affix the generators 2 into a block 3. Together, the block 3 and the block rack 4 define a block module 26.
- said block rack 4 comprises an inlet port 5, adapted for introducing the oxygen gas, and an outlet port, adapted for discharging the ozone, created through conversion in the generators 2 comprised in the block module 26.
- a multitude of first conduits 7, running between said inlet port 5 and each one chamber inlet, and a multitude of second conduits 8, running between said outlet port 6 and each one chamber outlet, are provided within said block rack 4. With the aim of simplifying the figure, only the conduits 7 to, and 8 from, one generator 2 are shown, but it will be understood that corresponding conduits will exist within the block rack 4 for all generators 2 of the block module 26, extending in parallel between the inlet port 5, the generator, and the outlet port 6, respectively.
- the block rack 4 thus serves both as a mechanically retaining element for the block 3, and as an inlet and outlet device for the generators 2 comprised in the block module 26.
- the block rack 4 thus serves both as a mechanically retaining element for the block 3, and as an inlet and outlet device for the generators 2 comprised in the block module 26.
- conduits 7 and 8 at each generator connection further provided with a pressure sensor, thereby further simplifying trouble- shooting as, by a pressure test, one can immediately gather which one, if any, of the generators 2, that is leaking.
- the total distance, from the inlet port 5 to the outlet port 6, via the generator and the conduits 7 and 8, has the same length for each generator within a block module 26.
- all generators 2 comprised in the block module 26 are connected in parallel, having an equally long distance of flow between the inlet port 5 and the outlet port 6, regardless of which generator 2 the introduced gas will pass through. Therefore, any pressure drops or pressure chocks within the gas supplied to the block rack 4, preferably oxygen gas or an oxygen-rich gas, or any irregularities in the gas flow, will tend to be levelled out and become equal in all chambers of the generators 2 comprised in the block module 26.
- said block module 26 can be placed in a module rack 9, adapted for supporting a multitude of such block modules 26, the block modules 26 prefer-ably being removable from the module rack 9 by means of a simple operation. From the figure it is observable how three block modules 26 are supported in a lying-down arrangement by the module rack 9.
- said module rack 9 comprises a supply connection 10, adapted for the supply of oxygen to said inlet port 5, and a discharge connection 11, adapted for the discharge of ozone from said outlet port 6.
- the inlet port 5 and the supply connection 10 are symbolically illustrated as one unit, but the person skilled in the art will understand that the illustrated connection comprises both these elements. The same of course applies for elements 6 and 11.
- said module rack 9 has only one collective inlet port 12, from which third conduits 13 are provided within the module rack 9 up to each supply connection 10, and only one collective outlet port 14, from which fourth conduits 15 are provided within the module rack 9 up to each discharge connection 11.
- said block modules 26 are designed to be placed at correspondingly adapted locations in the module rack 9, as illustrated in the figure, whereby the inlet ports 5 of the block racks 4 comprised in the block modules 26 will be connected in an airtight manner to their respective supply connections 10, and the outlet ports 6 will likewise be connected in an airtight manner to their respective discharge connections 11.
- a block module 26 can easily be removed from the module rack 9, whereby the connections 10 and 11 will preferably be equipped with valves in order to close off the possibility of gas flow communication there-through. This will improve the maintenance and repair possibilities, as one block module will be quickly exchangeable for a new one.
- the number of block modules 26 within the module system 1 can be easily decreased or increased according to the required ozone production.
- conduits 13 and 15 in the module rack 9 are arranged in parallel, in such a way that the distance from the collective inlet port 12 to the collective outlet port 14 will be the same, regardless of which block module 26 the introduced gas will pass through. The advantages thereof are reflected in what has been stated above for the individual block module 26.
- each block module 26 comprises a block rack 4 supporting a lying-down block 3 comprising a multitude of ozone generators 2, and the module rack 9 is, according to the illustrated embodiment, arranged for supporting a multitude of block modules 26, located one above the other.
- the person skilled in the art will however understand that an arrangement with standing blocks 3 could just as well be selected, and that the orientation is not of any crucial importance for the invention.
- the generators 2 comprised in the block module 26 include coolant ducts provided in the respective ground electrode, whereby a coolant inlet port 16 is provided on said block rack 4, and a multitude of first coolant inlet ducts 17, extending from said coolant inlet port 16 to the coolant ducts of each one generator 2 are defined within said block rack 4, and whereby a coolant outlet port 18 is provided on said block rack 4, and a multitude of first coolant outlet ducts 19, extending from the coolant ducts of each one generator to said coolant outlet port 18 are defined within said block rack 4.
- said module rack 9 for each block module 26 comprises a first coolant connection 20 for the inflow of coolant to said coolant ducts via said coolant inlet port 16, and a second coolant connection 21 for the outflow of coolant from said coolant ducts via said coolant outlet port 18.
- all coolant ducts are illustrated as dot-dashed lines and rhomb-shaped connections and junctions, while gas conduits are illustrated as continuous lines and ring-shaped connections and junctions.
- the block modules are easily removable from the module rack 9, whereby the connections 20 and 21 will preferably be equipped with valves in order to close off the possibility of coolant flow communication there-through.
- said module rack 9 has only one collective coolant inlet port 22, from which second inlet ducts 23 are provided up to each first coolant connection 20, and only one collective coolant outlet port 24, to which second coolant outlet conduits 25 are provided from each second coolant connection 21.
- the proposed design will result in an equally long distance of flow between the collective coolant inlet port 22 and the collective coolant outlet port 24, regardless of which block module 26 the coolant will pass through.
- the ozone generator system 1 can be easily enlarged in a modular manner. In spite of this, the module system 1 will have only four external connections; 12, 14, 22, 24.
- connection 12 is of course adapted for connection to a gas source, preferably oxygen gas or an oxygen-rich gas
- connection 14 is adapted for connection to a suitable ozone line.
- a cooling water source can be connected to the connection 22 and a cooling water dump or a return line to said cooling water source to the connection 24.
- the arrangement provided by the invention allows the ozone generator system to work as a pressure reservoir, as there will be substantially the same pressure in all parts of the gas system. Through avoiding excessive pressures in parts of the system, for example due to pressure shocks or design-induced pressure losses, a higher inlet pressure can be utilised, thus also improving the conversion factor.
- module system 1 With an appropriate design of the module system 1 it is of course also possible to combine several module systems into a group, whilst still achieving only one inlet port and one outlet port for oxygen/ozone and coolant, respectively.
- a modular system group can be obtained, comprising several module systems 1.
- the modular design disclosed by the invention can of course be continued into an unending number of levels, and will make it very easy for an ozone supplier to customise, in size, an ozone generator system for a customer whilst still achieving a simple installation with a minimum of external connections.
- the ozone generator system according to the invention can be described as follows:
- a generator 2 comprising a gas chamber and a coolant duct
- a block 3 comprising a multitude of generators 2, placed adjacent to each other;
- a block rack 4 comprising means for mechanical fixation of a block 3, and connection means for parallel supply and discharge of gas and coolant to each generator 2 of a block 3 ;
- a block module 26, comprising a block rack 4 and a block 3 arranged therein;

- a module system group comprising several connected module systems 1, said module system group exhibiting only one inlet and one outlet port for gas, and one inlet and one outlet port for coolant, respectively, for the generators 2 comprised therein.
- a supplier can thus offer an ozone generation arrangement comprising only one generator 2, a block module comprising several generators 2 arranged in parallel, a module system 1 comprising several block modules 26 arranged in parallel, or a module system group comprising several module systems 1, and yet provide a system that on the one hand allows an even pressure and flow both in the gas and the coolant system, on the other has only one external connection of each type; i.e. an inlet and an outlet, for gas and coolant, respectively.

- the system control unit 35 also comprises data presentation means, such as a display, and data input means, such as a keyboard, so that an operator may monitor and control the ozone generating process.
